Archdeacon 2 Grey Horse 2
Archdeacon moved to the top of the table with this point but rued several missed chances in the first half, their lead being confined to James Howlett's opener. Grey Horse fought back after the interval and only scorer Darren Tate levelled matters after 50 minutes. Deacon went ahead in controversial circumstances when the referee awarded a free kick to Grey Horse but allowed Deacon's Tommy Wright to take it and he duly dispatched the ball into an empty net. A twice taken penalty allowed Grey Horse to level through Neil Allinson and three minutes from time a missed penalty by the Deacon prevented them from taking all three points in an excellent encounter.

Hole in the Wall 2 DGSOB 0
Neither side had trouble with the scores until the how mark when Wall decided to introduce some youth onto the pitch in the shape of subs Andrew Macintosh and Mark Thompson and it was the latter who broke the deadlock when he broke away to finish in style. Thompson repeated his effort 15 minutes later and was only denied a hat trick following a fine move from Old Boys M of M keeper Andrew Merry.
Killinghall Arms 5 Post Boy 1

Killie copped a fine win with a stunning fifth from sub Jamie Langburn. M of M Andy Roberts (2), Danny Fleary and David Watson were Killie's first half scorers.
